After making three deviations about mapmaking it’s time to finally get back into painting. Since I like drawing landscapes I have searched for some videos online and found a video from Tyler Edlin called “Art tips & techniques : Deconstruction sketches”. In it he analyses a photograph and then paints it again, changing things to make it look better than the original photo. He jokingly called what he was doing “art directing nature” and I thought that sounded kind of fun, so I wanted to try it. I did it in grayscale since I am still trying to get better at using values.

Link to the video I mentioned: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVyocq…

Tyler is an awesome artist so check him out. (Especially if you want to get better at painting digitally and doing concept art and illustrations. I really like what he does. This kind of fantasy conceptarty illustrations is exactly what I would like to be able to do one day. Guess I’ll keep practicing )

I will upload the photograph I used along with a bit of my drawing process next week.

If you have any feedback let me know

Tips are always appreciated
